Question about adding extra Drives on ATX Motherboard.?
How many Drives can my ATX Motherboard can handle?
The computer is an old E-Machine with a Hard Drive, a DVD Player, CD-RW, & 3-1/2" Floppy Drive.
ATX Motherboard has 2 E-IDE connections and 1 Floppy Drive Connection.
The Hard Drive is the only device connected to the Primary E-IDE Slot.
The Floppy Drive is the only Drive connected to the FDD Slot.
I would like to install:
a Zip Drive [100], &
a DVD+R/RW Drive in place of the DVD Player, and
keep the Hard Drive & Floppy Drive.
Will this board support all these Drives?
What Buss Cables do I need?
What Jumper setting on the back of these Drives?
Thanks for any input you can give me.

You might need a bigger power supply & extra cabling, but it should all work.
